WATCH IT LIVE: Final state-level rehearsal for Vietnam’s 80th National Day parade in Hanoi

Vietnam held a full-dress rehearsal on Saturday for a military parade marking the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution’s success (August 19) and National Day (September 2), with troops and vehicles assembling at Ba Dinh Square in Hanoi ahead of the official ceremony next Tuesday.

Despite heavy rain in the capital, crowds filled viewing areas around Ba Dinh Square, leaving no space vacant.

Around 40,000 participants — including armed forces units from the military and police, civilian marching blocs, and military hardware divisions — took part in the event. 

Columns of tanks, artillery, and armored vehicles moved through central streets in Hanoi, drawing enthusiastic cheers from onlookers.

Fifteen ceremonial 105mm cannons were also fired near My Dinh Stadium as part of the rehearsal.
